'''Seals''' are large seafaring [[animal]]s of the Northern and Southern [[Hemisphere]]s. Despite having smooth skin, scientists classify them as being [[mammal]]s. Seals are distingushed from [[sealion]]s because they have [[flipper]]s instead of back feet, and [[ear]]s. They resemble large [[otter]]s, but are fatter because they have a protective layer of [[blubber]] beneath their skin.
